Smith was carried to the theater stage and a physician was called.Hudson killed his engine and aided in carrying the injured performer to the theater. He also called the physician. After examination Smith was pronounced out of danger, although he suffered from a wrenched hip and a badly sprained ankle. Smith did not hold Hudson responsible for the accident as he was working in the street at the time, attempting a new feat on the uni-cycle.The accident happened near the corner of Fifth and Wall streets. Smith was riding his uni-cycle backwards and Hudson was just turning around the corner. It was impossible for the men to see each other. When the automobile struck Smith he was thrown to the groundd, the machine passing over both man and uni-cycle before it could be stopped. The accident caused Smith to abandon his act for the night. However, there are five members of the troupe and three of these are women. They went on with the act, doing other tricks which were nearly equal to their partner’s feats.house onalong me to man idows might ■puta-man. opped n the ,n the ed an man’s t firmFATHER'S QUEST DF TWO YEARS ENDS TODAY(Continued from page 1.)artled hurry.1 had a trrong. n the placepeared from their Kansas City home.Abided in His Father.“I was sure he was not dead and that I should some day be rewarded for my diligence and persistency in searching for him, and now it seems that my faith has not been in vain,” said Mr. Lusk as he left the police headquarters at Webb City to await the coming of the morrow which is to be the happiest day of two long years for him.him.lie took 40 cents from South Virginia avenue.He entered a house on Joplin street between Sixteenth and Seventeenth streets, but says he took nothing.House at Thirteenth and Kentucky h® took $1 in cash.House at Twelfth and Pennsylvania where he secured $12 in cash.'House at Fourth and Moffet yielded $4.35.House at Second and Moffet $6.10.House at Fifteenth and Pennsylvania 24 cents.House on North Byers $2.95.At Twentieth and Byers he took nothing.Fifteenth and Bankers 35 cents.A house on Byers between Sixth and Fifth $7.House at Ninth and Pearl nothing.From the apartments of Honorable Charles Morgan.
